The "Problem Solving in Data Structures & Algorithms" series is designed to help programmers master the application of data structures and algorithms in real-world scenarios, with a particular focus on interview preparation. Written in an easy-to-understand manner, these books offer examples in a variety of programming languages, including Go, C, C++, Java, C#, Python, VB, JavaScript, and PHP.

This book is an excellent resource for those entering the world of data structures and algorithms, especially if you're preparing for technical interviews. It covers key concepts in both data structures, which determine how data is organized in memory for efficient access, and algorithms, which are sets of instructions designed to manipulate these data structures and solve computational problems.
Understanding how to design efficient algorithms is a critical skill sought by top technology companies such as Microsoft, Google, and Facebook. Interviewers from these companies often assess candidates' ability to leverage data structures and algorithms to solve complex, real-world problems in an optimized manner. Consequently, mastering these topics is not only essential for passing interviews but also crucial for excelling as a software engineer in the industry.
The book starts with an introduction to complexity analysis, which is foundational for understanding the efficiency of algorithms. From there, it delves into various data structures such as Linked Lists, Stacks, Queues, Trees, Heaps, Hash Tables, and Graphs, along with their associated algorithms. You'll also learn about fundamental sorting and searching techniques.
In the final chapters, the book introduces advanced algorithmic techniques such as Brute-Force algorithms, Greedy algorithms, Divide and Conquer techniques, Dynamic Programming, and Backtracking. Notably, the section on dynamic programming is particularly strong, as it categorizes dynamic programming problems into five distinct patterns to help you recognize and solve them efficiently.
When preparing for technical interviews at leading software companies, a deep understanding of data structures and algorithms is indispensable. This book is specifically written from the perspective of interview preparation, providing practical examples and problems to help you sharpen your problem-solving skills.
Aside from teaching you how to write algorithms efficiently, the book ensures that you can use this knowledge to handle real-world problems, which is a critical skill in technical interviews.

All Returns and Refund are as per Abebooks policies.
If you are a consumer you can cancel the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION
Statutory Right to cancel
You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us, Ria Christie Collections, Suite B; (inside) ARUN House; ARUN, Arundel Road; Uxbridge Ind Est, UB8 2RR, Uxbridge, United Kingdom, +44 7727654838, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
Effects of cancellation
If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Ria Christie Collections, Suite B; (inside) ARUN House; ARUN Building, Arundel Road; Uxbridge Ind Est, UB8 2RR, Uxbridge, United Kingdom, +44 7727654838, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of cancellation
The right of cancellation does not apply to:
